The climate of Provence (France)
The Provence is situated in the south of France and has a subtropical
climate. Spring comes early in the Provence and that, among other
things, causes the delicious odors of the lavenderfields in May. The
fields with lavender are sometimes so large that you can already smell
them from afar. It is not without reason that this region has been a
source of inspiration for many painters for centuries. In the summer
the temperature can rise until about 30 degrees. In the winter the
temperature seldom drops below zero. Typical for the Provence is the
mistral. This cold wind can come on all of a sudden from the Central
Massive and produces a rough breeze in the winter and delightful
cooling in the summer.
